recomended tack sites and shops
I have an extremely long list of things I require this winter and I'm not rolling in dosh having just bought a new horse and going over to Portugal for the Golega fair. So any help, advise recommended good quality but not to costly places to shop would be great.
I prefer on the internet as i don't have a great amount of time to spend travelling around to tack shops.
Urgent needs are: 6'3" light and middleweight turnout rugs.
6'3" Middleweight sable rug.
Warm coat for me that covers hips.
Not so urgent are: Jodphurs for me.
Double English bridle brown to match Chocolate Albion saddle.
Any suggestions of good web sites etc greatly Appreciated.

yes Robinsons are excellent, I've just bought the Saxon Standard turnout rug middleweight for about £37. It's smart and warm.
They have great prices on jods too.
Link is http://www.robinsons-uk.com/

Would agree about robinsons, but I don't like paying loads of carriage So I have also used this place - http://www.tackshop.co.uk/ and they do free carriage when you spend over £50 
Always had super speedy delivery from them too, unlike robinsons who seem to be unable to find my house !!

www.equestrianclearancewarehouse.com is brill, I got a load of stuff from there last month, including a Weatherbeeta taka turnout that should have been about £145 for £89.99
Also, try www.james-howard.co.uk they do a free and speedy delivery.

I got an email from Derbyhhouse this morning with a promotion of 10% off their rugs online using this code : 004WEB until 7th October.
I know Rideaway had rug special offer recently too.
I just ordered from the place Jessey mentioned. I got a new hat, some cleaning stuff and a Stubben saddlecloth - all of which were cheaper there than anywhere - including ebay, and there was no P&P which saved another £5.
